In the optimum conditions a linear relationship has been constructed in the concentration range of 0.02 to 1.0 mg/L and 0.01 to 0.5 mg/L for SWSV and DPSV in pH 3.0 phosphate buffer solution, respectively. Limit of detection (LOD) values for vardenafil determinations were13.6 mu g/L and 4.38 mu g/L for SWSV and DPSV, respectively. Quantifications were performed on commercial pharmaceutical tablets and synthetic blood serum using both techniques. The relative errors were +5.0% and -3.0% for SWSV and DPSV, respectively in the determination of vardenafil active ingredient in Levitra (R) tablet. SWS and DPS voltammetric determination of synthetic blood serum spiked with 50.0 mu g/L vardenafil exhibited 100.8% and 104.4% recovery, respectively. Interference effects of some organic species such as ascorbic acid, uric acid, dopamine, glucose have also been investigated.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVardenafilvoltammetrydeterminationgraphitemetal oxidefunctionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubesArticleQ4Q46414554WOS:000472724000004
